True or trite? Wise or wistful? Fact or forget-about-it? Rite or wrong?
The Code of G&F (for the BRC founder`s band ): as transcribed from the original Latin text –
1) “E bandita rehearsus unim dispersus ad infinitum” translates `The band that rehearses together disperses forever.`
2)” Negatori musica populatum diminuendi versus bandita” translates ` Play no music if the audience is smaller than the band.`
Inspiring or insipid? Rules or rubbish? Tagline or out–of-line? Motto or loco?
Slogans of the BRC workshop staff:
1) “All banjos deserve a second chance.” Question- Are older banjo pickers afforded this generosity?
2) “A New Tomorrow for Old Banjos.” Questions- Will there be a new dawn for aging banjo pickers? Are there banjos in heaven? If a banjo falls in the forest, does it make a sound?
Pictured is the` Gainor & Friends` band promo and gig photo chronicling a recent benefit performance for the Children`s Hospital which was preceded, as always, by no rehearsal. By serendipity, the brewpub audience was larger than the G&F band.
